The Old Smithy

"The Old Smithy"

Ms Vanessa Murray

The Old Smithy is a beautiful thatched Listed building in Bedfordshire dating back to the mid 17th Century. Still operating as a smithy in 1925 at the time of the rating Valuation Act, it was described as having a 'parlour, kitchen, pantry, scullery and office, with three bedrooms upstairs in the attics'. Sometime after this entry the property became a family home. However, the current owner found it to be draughty and, being located on a busy main road, was in need of noise insulation. Selectaglaze treated a total of 17 windows in an assortment of shapes and sizes, some of which were finished in brown to match the existing windows. The Smithy’s owner, Vanessa Murray, said:  “I am really pleased with the work done and so impressed with the efficient way Selectaglaze’s team came in and fitted 17 windows in just one day”. Since this project was completed the Series 30 has been superceeded by the Series 31 lift-out.
